Tailored training tracks for healthy home careers
The HHA curriculum was developed with a keen eye toward industry demand. Based on that criteria, we’ve developed training programs for four distinct career tracks. Each track builds on a shared foundation of six core courses to ensure that each HHA student has the fundamentals necessary to understand and navigate a healthy home career. From there, each track provides the specialized class and field work necessary for graduates to find work—and make meaningful contributions from their first day forward.
